The action in DC’s House of Brainiac event will ramp up even further across the pages of Action Comics and Superman this May, with DC giving fans a first look at covers and interior art for the new issues. Power Girl will also join the action with a special tie-in issue.

As Brainiac and his Czarnian army rob Metropolis of its super-powered protectors, Superman, Lobo and the rest of the Super-Family must join the fight to bring a stop to the evil conqueror. Joshua Williamson’s Action Comics #1065 is House of Brainiac’s third installment, with the issue showing Superman and Lobo fighting Brainiac’s army in outer space while Supergirl and Conner Kent handle the threat from inside. In Superman #14, the fourth part of the event arrives with Lobo appearing to betray the Man of Steel as the two come to blows while Brainiac gets even closer to bringing the Brainiac Queen to life.
